“Inasmuch as an excellent spirit, knowledge, understanding, interpreting dreams, solving riddles, and explaining enigmas were found in this Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar, now let Daniel be called, and he will give the interpretation.” Daniel 5:12 NKJV
God is very intentional about who He wants us to become, and He gradually guides us to that destination if we yield.
He orchestrates events and plants ideas in our hearts so that as we act on them, we move one step closer to the future He wants for us.
Earlier in 2024, my wife and I perceived that we needed to purchase media gadgets for our ministry work. Miraculously, God sent provision. I was talking with an uncle of mine on an unrelated subject, and suddenly he asked how he could support our work. That was how we got what we needed.
We had other purposes in mind; we thought we would use them for our annual events, but those never took place because our son arrived and took over our lives.
Just in November, we put together an event for the fellowship we lead in our church using all those gadgets we purchased. We went all out to give people an unforgettable experience, and God had already provided everything we spent through the gift of men.
Those who attended kept raving about the experience of the event and how it had transformed their lives. One of the most significant testimonies was how someone got saved from a suicide attempt.
Looking back at the event, my wife and I marvelled at how God led us through different experiences over the years, putting us in positions where we had to spearhead programs, showing us examples of excellence, and giving us the skills to make things happen.
When you look back at previous events in your life, can you see how God has prepared you for where you are now? Can you see the intentionality in His process?
As long as we are alive, there’s still more to come. You will realise that eventually, when you walk into a place, the testimony about you will be an accumulation of everything you have acquired over the years, just like was said of Daniel as in the anchor scripture. His portfolio was read out, and he was second to none.
We all have that excellent spirit. So, let’s work with God through every season and count every experience as a win.
